It sure sounds like this app is misbehaving. It could be starting and
stopping things a lot or more likely it is going CPU bound which is causing
the HAL to penalize it by forcing quiet periods and doing many resynch
operations.

My bet is you will see your skips everytime a new client starts playing.
Things like SysBeep() are the most frequent things that cause this sort of
thing. Can you trace any bad behavior to this issue?
